The format, comic textbook graphic art style telling of this story serves to enhance the horrific tale. I have never reviewed a textbook before and am not a talented writer but I feel compelled to comment on this textbook. I wanted to peruse the textbook to see if it was suitable for my grandchild who is now nine years old. I may wait a little for that but I could not put the textbook down. The realism and at the same time incredibleness seem to piggy back each other and emphasize each other. I would call it a "must" read.
